Graphically we’ve had diminishing returns for quite some time now. I also don’t find myself that interested in the games from major studios because they’re generally just not very good.
I don’t see a reason to artificially limit myself, but there are more then enough games from the past to keep me entertained.
That said there are some games on the horizon I am looking forward to. The next Witcher and Civ VII come to mind. I’m sure their GOTY editions will be great!
I think ignorance (in the non pejorative sense) plays a big part. I can’t really blame my non technical friends for not fully understanding that ditching Facebook for Instagram doesn’t help. Even if they know it’s the same company, it’s still a totally different product, right? There’s also a certain apathy or need to just get something done.
I’m sure I’ve purchased things at Home Depot that would make a plumber cringe, but I know nothing about that sort of thing and I just need to get my sink working.
Still, I think those of us who do know should continue to lead by example. My friends know my stance on these things and some of them are coming around.
I’ll have to give it a try!
I don’t really get the floating bar myself. Doesn’t it take up more space and make it so you can’t slam the mouse to the bottom of the screen to click things on it?
Jennifer Hale did such a great job in Mass Effect.
Peterson has said way more bullshit and its all on YouTube.
Rogan supposedly being neutral with everyone is problematic since it puts crazy people on equal footing with experts, and it causes confusion for people who may not know better. As an extreme example, being neutral means you should spend the time and effort to hear out a flat earther as much as an astronomer. Everyone is entitled to an opinion, but not everyone is entitled to a platform to spew bullshit.
I make it a point to drive exactly at the speed limit in front of these assholes.
Anyone know how good Hori’s d-pad is?
That video!! Yeah, I don’t believe it either. Sort of reminds me of doing Kung Fu as a kid. We’d do public demonstrations and would sometimes ham it up a bit for the audience. I wonder if that’s what’s going on.
Have you practiced push hands? There’s a neat effect I can only describe as sort of being able to bounce off the other person. You can get some decent air with it! I also wonder if there’s a bit of that going on with a lot of exaggeration.
I agree with you about the “weird stuff”. I teach Tai Chi and I’m very careful about the words I use, especially when it comes to describing mechanical forces. I’ll often mention that I don’t mean some notion of “life force” but rather the physical Newtonian force that your body is subject to while performing the movements.
I find Tai Chi to be deceptively complicated with deep physical and psychological components. I have a hard time articulating what it is to others since it’s not really a martial art, and it’s not really meditation, and it’s not just a bunch of movements or calisthenics. But it does have very real effects and I love it!
It sounds like your experience is quite similar to mine and I’m happy you found a good teacher and are enjoying the practice! 😀
The software will likely work, but keep in mind that you’ll have to add VM startup time when you want to use the software. I have occasionally seen software behave strangely in a VM as well, so best to just try it.
Can you share the software you went to use? Maybe there’s a good Linux alternative or someone knows how to get it working in wine.
Is this the one using the open source kernel module?
He’s just not fully materialized yet.
This is sad. I really like the app!
What’s everyone using instead?
Are you using Wayland or X? Do you see the same behaviour in both?
I just don’t watch many shows and a lot of the stuff coming out I don’t find that great anyway so I’d rather do something else with my time than pay more for worse service.
That’s OK. I’ve already removed Netflix
Cool! I think your intended experience can fuck off if there’s something about it I don’t enjoy.
I haven’t played this game yet so I don’t know if this is the case, but my free time is precious and if I bought the game its my choice how to enjoy it.
Thank the maker for mods!
